My Neighbor Likes it When I Mow

My neighbor is a single mom. She seems nice enough, but she’s always at arm’s length — I don’t know, it’s probably some kind of trust thing and being a tall, kind of loud, a little arrogant, and definitively opinionated guy, I’m sure I fall into a “not to be trusted” category. And that’s probably [...]

Reality or Delusion — I hate choices like that…

I probably talk about sex a lot because it’s one of the most primal, natural things we can do, and yet it’s the most fucked up repressed thing in our society. Of course, it’s not just sex… it’s body functions, it’s family, it’s… it’s everything. As I read my blog, my private journal, and my [...]

We’re All Sociopaths

I wanted to watch something light tonight, like an old Bing Crosby and Bob Hope film, but Fiona wanted to watch Dexter. We’ve never seen it and with Netflix it was easy enough to watch the first three episodes back to back. Well, easy is a relative term. It’s a mildly disturbing show with some [...]

Straightening my Kinks

They say that there’s a “gay gene” which means there’s a “hereto gene” and probably a “kink gene.” Turns out a lot of social behavior is genetic — that fine line between genius and psychopath. A great deal of our trusting of others, and our willingness to take advantage of that trust, all have a [...]

Contextual Sin

After I posted my Jesus left some sin on my doorstep blog yesterday, I asked @Fallen_Depths to define sin for me. A bit of a Twitter discussion ensued. Our resident, ex-Rabbi, @byepluto said “Sin is just a word the church uses to keep you from enjoying yourself,” @Fallen_Depths responded, “No it’s not – and you [...]

Romantic or Realist?

It’s dark tonight, but everything was shimmering in the moonlight as it reflected off the dampness from the afternoon rain. The moon shone up from the mudpuddles and lit my way as I slipped through the back yard to find the… well, the garbage can and recycling bucket. The nice thing about being a hopeless [...]

Do women really like semen?

I have to wonder if women really like the taste of semen. I don’t think I’ll ever know for sure because, as we know, women are liars. They lie to please and they lie to hurt. I know, sounds harsh and bitter, but I’m a man, and sometimes harsh and bitter is how we view [...]

The Path

Back to BDSM for a moment… Choosing darkness over light, choosing pain over pleasure, choosing the darker path of life… The justifications I see are all well and good (you learn more about yourself, the darkness is more real, life needs more than just puppies and sugarplums) but I worry about people living on the [...]

The Science of Necromancy

Necromancy (pronounced nek-ruh-man-see; Greek νεκρομαντεία nekromanteia, via Latin necromantia) a form of magic in which the practitioner seeks to summon the spirit of the deceased The remains of the dead are pulled from the earth — it’s a dirty business, but there’s power in the dead… a lingering life force that can be coerced to [...]

Nirvana Vu

I had a moment just now where I suddenly found myself looking around the room and feeling completely disconnected from everything. Instead of déjà vu where you feel like this moment has happened before, it was more like “this moment isn’t happening now.” I think I’ll call it Nirvana Vu. I could go all metaphysical [...]
